That's a lot to lose when you're supposed to be in your contending window.

1. Durzi is absolutely worth 6 million, you just have to had paid attention to how he was used and played after he left here

2. 4 years at that ain’t bad at all

3. Some of you are gonna shit your pants at the money handed out tomorrow. GMs finally have some breathing room and you know they can’t help themselves. I wouldn’t be shocked to see a Roy 6x7.5

I think it's the 6 that freaking people out. If it was 5x4 , not a lot of complaining. It's a short deal too as you pointed out. Durzi is a good player, especially bringing the puck in, and our pp missed him a lot. We had no one to replace his production.

Matt Roy is going to get 7.5-8.0 :nod:

If you want talent, you have to pay for it. In demand talent dictates the market. Get a little luck, you might win, and if you don't, you probably won't.

Cap is up so I expect some player salaries to rise.

Yeah. We need to stop thinking of these contracts in terms of x dollars. It's about the percentage of the cap. A six million a year player is not the same thing as a six million dollar a year player five or six years ago.

tampa has way too much money on way too few players imo, near 50% of their cap is on 5 forwards who are locked down for huge term. nothing's staggered, their team implodes after 2030

i guess this is the nu nhl though, you play your top players for half the damn game then LTIR their corpses

Not as bad as the Leafs. Steven Dangle mentioned this on his podcast recently.....Leafs have 4 players tying up 53% of the cap.

NHL free agency shows teams in states with no income tax have an advantage

When the Tampa Bay Lightning made moves at the NHL draft to clear salary cap space, general manager Julien BriseBois hoped a variety of factors would entice players to sign as free agents. It has become difficult to deny the impact of favorable tax situations around the league in recent years...
finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com

Averaging out Reinhart's salary to $8.625 million annually, he owes $3.15 million in taxes in Florida. He would pay $1.1 million more in California, $1.5 million more in New York and $1.4 million more in Toronto, according to a calculator provided publicly by Cardinal Point Athlete Advisors.

Over the length of the contract that could save him up to $12 million.
